The device description and performance studies focus on the principle of protein electrophoresis and electrical cleaning, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No
A therapeutic device intends to treat or cure a disease or condition. This device is an adjunct cleaner for contact lenses and does not treat, cure, or prevent any disease or condition.
No
The device is an electrical cleaner for soft hydrophilic contact lenses, intended for deproteinization and storage. It is used to clean contact lenses, not to diagnose medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is an "electrical cleaner" and details physical components like a "cleaning unit (Power Base)", "partitioned fluid reservoir", "cleaning chamber", "cleaning tanks", "cleaning probe", "electrode", "circuit board", and "electrode connectors". This indicates a hardware-based device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to clean and deproteinize soft contact lenses. This is a process performed on a medical device (contact lenses) to maintain their function and hygiene, not to diagnose a condition or analyze a biological sample from a patient.
- Device Description: The device description details an electrical cleaner that uses protein electrophoresis to remove protein from contact lenses. This is a physical cleaning process, not a diagnostic test.
- Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: IVD devices are designed to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with or analyze any biological samples from a patient.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the device's ability to remove protein from contact lenses and its physical compatibility with lenses. These are performance metrics related to the cleaning function, not diagnostic accuracy.
Therefore, the 3N Contact Lenses Adjunct Cleaner is a medical device intended for the care and maintenance of contact lenses, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The proposed device, 3N Contact Lenses Adjunct Cleaner, Model TN083 is an electrical cleaner which is intended for use as an adjunct in deproteinization and storage for soft hydrophilic contact lenses using approved contact lens solutions.
The 3N Contact Lenses Adjunct Cleaner adopt the principle of protein electrophoresis, take advantage of the characteristics that negatively charged protein in certain environment and swarm towards positive pole in electric field, then the tear protein will be removed from the surface and air holes of contact lens and absorbed by anodic cleaning probe to achieve the goal of cleaning contact lenses.
The cleaning components of the 3N Contact Lenses Adjunct Cleaner (Model: TN083) consist of a cleaning unit (Power Base) and a partitioned fluid reservoir functioning as the cleaning chamber.
The cleaning chamber is detachably connected to the cleaning unit (power base). In the cleaning chamber, there are two independent cleaning tanks; and there is a cleaning probe on each side of the cleaning tank, namely electrode. In the cleaning unit, the circuit board is fixedly provided with electrode connectors electrically connected to the circuit board. The end of the electrode connector can be stretched and elastically connected with the bottom of the electrode.

Summary of Performance Studies
The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination:
7.1 Biocompatibility testing
The biocompatibility evaluation for the 3N Contact Lenses Adjunct Cleaner is conducted in accordance with the International Standard ISO10993-1 " Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices -Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process" as recognized by FDA. The worst case of the device is considered mucosal membranes contacting for duration of less than 24 hours. And the testing included the following tests:
- Cytotoxicity Study using MTT Method
- Guinea Pig Maximization Test
- Ocular Irritation test
7.2 Software Verification and Validation
Software documentation, including verification, was provided following FDA Guidance: Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices for software with a minor level of concern.
7.3 Safety and EMC
Testing was performed to verify the basic safety and essential performance of the 3N Contact Lenses Adjunct Cleaner, TN 083. The following tests were performed: IEC 61010-1:2010+A1:2016 Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control, and laboratory use-Part1: General requirements IEC 61326-1:2013 Electrical equipment for measurement, control and laboratory use-EMC requirements- Part 1: General requirements
7.4 Performance Testing- Bench
The following tests were performed to demonstrate that the proposed 3N contact lenses adjunct cleaner met the applicable design and performance requirements and support a determination of substantial equivalence. Where applicable, testing was done per applicable ISO and other international standards.
Deproteinization efficiency testing and Service life testing
Testing was performed to verify the Protein removal effect of the 3N contact lenses adjunct cleaner. This verification test selected lenses of four kinds of materials from Johnson and Cooper Optics. After soaking in artificial tears, Ocufilcon D and Etafilcon A soft contact lenses had a large amount of protein adsorption. The protein cleaning rate was more than 92.5% with 3N contact lenses adjunct cleaner combined with care solution. However, Comfilcon A and Senofilcon A soft contact lenses have very little protein adsorption, so it is impossible to calculate the clearance effect. The protein removal rate of Ocufilcon D soft contact lens was 95% after 3N contact lenses adjunct cleaner was recycled for 0, 151 times. So the shelf life of the 3N contact lenses adjunct cleaner is 3 months.
Physical compatibility testing
The testing was considerably streamlined just assessing 3 low modulus high water SCLs (>50wt% water, for example 3 commercial lenses from any of these SCL materials, hioxifilcon A, nelfilcon A or nesofilcon A, or other high water materials) with the 3N device.
Deviation of the parameters of contact lenses before and requirements after cleaned by 3N Contact Lenses Adjunct Cleaner complies with the relevant requirements in ISO 18369-2:2017.
- Cleaning Validation was performed to demonstrate functionality is not affected after maximum number of cleaning cycles. The device was cleaned following the procedure defined in the User's Manual.
7.5 Performance Testing - Animal
This submission does not include any animal performance testing. It was determined that no such testing was required to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
7.6 Performance Testing - Clinical
This submission does not include any clinical performance testing. It was determined that no such testing was required to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
Key Metrics
Protein cleaning rate was more than 92.5% with 3N contact lenses adjunct cleaner combined with care solution.
The protein removal rate of Ocufilcon D soft contact lens was 95% after 3N contact lenses adjunct cleaner was recycled for 0, 151 times.
